I'm sorry I thought you were just inquiring about the brake lines. Yes wires will have to be extended as well.
If using Magnum Shielding ABS brake lines there are three sections total. The upper line length is determined by the height of the bars and goes from the master cylinder to the joint of the mid line behind the fairing. The mid section runs from under the fairing back to the ABS module. Then you have the lower section that runs from the ABS module to the forks then down to the calipers.
With 14" apes you're going to need brake lines, clutch cable and wire extensions for sure.

For brake lines I've used Galfer in the past - they do a great and can make what you want - www.galferusa.com. I've not extended a TBW set up yet so can't help you there.

Yes, the "stock" line is one piece from the master cylinder to the ABS module. The Magnum Shielding is two pieces from the master cylinder to ABS module. This allows you to change bars again if you wish and all you have to buy is the short upper line.

My apologies to the OP if I confused or misled you on the brake lines. I wasn't aware of the two piece upper line from Magnum.

I forget what brand I bought but I used a one piece in black. ABS module all the way to the Master Cylinder.
Found it on Phat Performance for like 50-60 bucks.
May have been a Goodridge.
EDIT: It was a Russell and I measured the stock length and added like 12".

Then added end connectors so the brake line coming out of the master cylinder followed the bars nicely.

I'm certain you can now get this as a one piece but at the time ABS was kinda newish.

You don't add 14" to the measurement of your stock clutch cable. Your stock bars are 8"ish, your wanting to go to 14"...add 6". I went with a +6 motionpro clutch cable to put my 14's on. You should be able to search year/make/model, and it will depict a +4,+6, ect. Don't have the part number or lengths available right now.
